BREAKING: CHAUNCEY BILLUPS ARRESTED BY FBI FOR ILLEGAL GAMBLING (4 Viewers)

[Pinwheel1]

So we will go interim for a bit.

They installed a new offense in the offseason, so you either hire a coach who is good with that offense, or you might as well wait.
I am not sure Thibs or Malone would be a good fit for an uptempo offense. But maybe they can adapt

Retired sports celebrities get paid for all sorts of events to attract customers.

Yeah, that part really sucks.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Maybe they mean Tonto and the Lone Ranger.

 

[Rastapopoulos]

Involved with italian mob, participating in rigged poker games, defrauding unwitting victims out of millions of dollars

So... Robin Hood without the redistribution aspect?

 

[illmatic99]

Assuming Bjrorken will take over for now

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Has Billups made a statement?

"I'll be holding a series of poker games to raise money for my defense."

BREAKING NEWS: SLYPOKERDOG HAS BEEN ARRESTED BY THE FBI FOR ILLEGAL GAMBLING.

 

[Chris Craig]

Maybe they mean Tonto and the Lone Ranger.

Raptors?

 

[Sedatedfork]

Not bad for a guy with part of his brain missing.

How about….Ya, he could coach the team, but those post game showers are a whole different vibe

Will there be a special edition of the MM who to blame game for this?

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Raptors?

Yes, the Lone Ranger could have been a raptor. He did wear a mask so we don't really know.

 

[Pinwheel1]

Assuming Bjrorken will take over for now

I wonder how he gets along with the staff and players since that seemed to be an issue in Indiana.

"Bjorkgren's communication style has been categorized as aggressive and abrasive with players and members of the Pacers staff"

Those are issues that people can learn from. On the other it will be really tough for the next coach. The players seemed to love and respect CB.
No way he can match the personal relationships he had built with the players like Dame, Jrue, and Scoot.

 

[Chris Craig]

Who hasn't?

 

[Chris Craig]

Yes, the Lone Ranger could have been a raptor. He did wear a mask so we don't really know.

That would explain the strange vocalizations

 

[SlyPokerDog]

This is a hell of a test for our new software! It's like 3 game threads at once.

 

[Cugel]

Will the Blazers continue to let him coach while out on bond? That would be a huge distraction for the team.

The nba has put him on leave ie he is done

 

[LayneStaley]

I’m a Raiders and Blazers fan, both franchises cursed. Fuck me.

 

[Chris Craig]

This is a hell of a test for our new software! It's like 3 game threads at once.

And another loss....or is it a win?

 

[LayneStaley]

No wonder he never called timeouts.

 

[Cugel]

Just see if Malone will take the job. Need a winning coach

 

[LayneStaley]

I bet the new owner is like wtf.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

I bet the new owner is like wtf.

Or

"I knew he cheated me when we met in Las Vegas."

 

[Chris Craig]

I bet the new owner is like wtf.

Billups can always get a job at Panda Express

 

[1 Eye Jack]

They won't need to pay him a dime....he's breached his contract on the morals clause. The NBA has suspended him already.

Problem is it’s probably going to court and take year or longer to resolve unless he admits guilt. This is muddy and drags the Blazers into until he’s no longer coach. The easy out for him is resigning, this gets him some money and also gets the Blazers brand out of this ugly scandal.

 

[LayneStaley]

Who is out there? Malone, Thibs ?

 

[SlyPokerDog]

There was a poker player on his podcast a few years back who said Chauncey was cheating people at poker in LA and Vegas. Apparently there have been rumors about this for a while.

 

[LayneStaley]

This is pretty bad.

 

[wizenheimer]

has HCP posted anything today? break out the tin foil

 

[LayneStaley]

1 game into the season lol

 

[MickZagger]

Splitter is the interim coach
